the unbalanced evolution of homo sapiens

by Alan MacLeod Part 7 -  Racist Sesame Street PragerU sits at the apex between neoconservative foreign policy, reactionary social policy at home, and relentless pro-Israel advocacy. But the primacy of all three of these positions are increasingly under threat in the United States, and are becoming progressively more unpopular. Large majorities of Americans support a system of socialized medicine that PragerU so actively campaigns against, as well as making colleges free to attend, and building social housing nationwide. Sixty-two percent of young Americans hold a favorable view of socialism. Polls show the country overwhelmingly disapproves of Trump’s aggression against Iran. And after nearly three years of genocide, the tide is turning on Israel. An April Pew Research Center study found that even four in ten Republicans hold an unfavorable view of the country. That figure rises to 57% of Republicans under the age of fifty. Top right-wing media figures, such as Candace Owens, and ...

  ... and no lessons have been learned At 8:15am on 6 August 1945, a nuclear bomb nicknamed "Little Boy" was dropped on Hiroshima by an American B-29 Superfortress bomber, the Enola Gay, flown by Colonel Paul Tibbets. The blast and subsequent fire devastated an area of five square miles (13 square kilometres). More than 60% of the city's buildings were completely destroyed. An estimated 80,000 people died immediately, but injuries and radiation took the final death toll to around 140,000 from Hiroshima's population of 350,000. Below, thousands of people were instantly carbonised in a blast that was thousands of times hotter than the sun's surface; further from the epicentre, birds ignited in mid-flight, eyeballs popped and internal organs were sucked from bodies of victims. By the end of the day an estimated 160,000 were dead or injured and the bomb's "ghosts" walked the city - thousands of initial survivors who would die within days, often with the ...

What Israel is currently doing in southern Lebanon is clearly genocide and ecocide, yet the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights—who is a Zionist—claimed otherwise! Israel poisoned the land in Lebanon, just as it did with the water wells in Palestine, violating the Chemical Weapons Convention.  Israel sprayed toxic and carcinogenic chemicals all over Lebanese agricultural land, resulting in catastrophic levels of cancer-linked chemical in the soil, concentrations reached 22,750 mcg/g, that’s 11,000 times above the safe levels of 0.5/2 mcg/g. Israel destroyed 22.5% of agricultural land—nearly 56,000 hectares. Israel fires banned white phosphorus chemical munitions at villages in southern Lebanon—ancient villages where Jesus Christ once walked, villages that have stood the test of time for centuries and centuries, with prehistoric and Roman-era roots—burning forests, valleys, hills, fruit orchards, and entire ecosystems. Israel burns more than 120 hectares of centuries-old olive gro...

The migration crisis that has been unfolding on the Spanish border since Thursday is an artificial crisis, at the behest of Israel by Leonidas Vatikiotis Part 2 -  Sanchez a red rag to Israel, Trump, and the far right Sanchez further worsened his position by coming into Trump's crosshairs. The reason was Spain's reluctance to increase its military spending—as the US demanded of all NATO countries—in order to generate profit for American defense industries and extra money for politicians who are being bribed by them. Spain gives 2.13% of its GDP to military spending—whereas Trump has demanded a 5% contribution—leading him to beat even his own eccentricity at the recent summit of the military alliance in Ankara, through a tirade against Spain: "I don’t want anything to do with Spain. Cut off all trade with Spain, please, including visits ... Don’t even talk to them. They’re hopeless, bad people,” he declared, prompting every serious person to view Spain in a new, more apprec...

Double Down News The Media Lied To You.  

The Jimmy Dore Show   In this video, Jimmy Dore offers a scathing critique of CNN's Dana Bash and her colleagues in the legacy media for their COVID-19 coverage, accusing them of being paid mouthpieces for pharmaceutical companies rather than skeptical journalists. He argues that Anthony Fauci systematically lied about masks, social distancing, natural immunity, and the virus's origin, while CNN and other networks censored dissenting scientists like Dr. Robert Malone and Dr. Peter McCullough. Dore points to documented financial ties between Pfizer and CNN, as well as statements from former medical journal editors confirming widespread industry corruption, to support claims that the pandemic response was manufactured for profit. The segment defends RFK Jr.'s questioning of vaccine science and measles narratives, concluding that mainstream media journalists who ridicule truth-tellers are cowardly accessories to a deadly medical fraud.

by Alan MacLeod Part 6 -  Make America Dumb Again Streit has been at PragerU since its inception in 2009. Her views on politics and Israel/Palestine, however, could almost be described as moderate, compared with company founder, Dennis Prager. The right-wing talk show host has visited Israel dozens of times, including leading a “Stand with Israel” tour across the country, including into occupied East Jerusalem and the Golan Heights. He labeled Palestinians as “among the world’s most morally unimpressive national groups” and claimed that “lying is a Palestinian art form.” Prager, who has campaigned for whites to be allowed to use the N-word, fell in his bathroom in 2024, and was left quadriplegic and paralyzed from the neck down, and since has taken a back seat in the organization. The empire he built was bankrolled to the tune of millions by fracking billionaires, Dan and Farris Wilks, although the pair later pulled their money after Prager was insufficiently homophobic for their l...

Judge Napolitano - Judging Freedom   Max Blumenthal explains. 

The migration crisis that has been unfolding on the Spanish border since Thursday is an artificial crisis, at the behest of Israel by Leonidas Vatikiotis Part 1 The aim of the Israeli destabilization plan is to undermine and overthrow Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez because the social democratic politician supports Palestine and refuses to become a docile instrument of Israel, as almost all European prime ministers have become. Sanchez has come under fire from Zionism for joining South Africa in taking Israel to the International Criminal Court on charges of genocide in Gaza. The result was an arrest warrant for the Israeli prime minister.  Sanchez recognized the state of Palestine, welcomed Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas in Madrid with the honors of a head of state, they held a joint press conference and called Palestine a "brotherly state".  In 2025, Sanchez banned the sale of arms and the import of any kind of goods from illegal Jewish settlements.

Geopolitical Economy Report The US war on Iran keeps expanding into a regional conflict, as more countries get involved. Reports show that Donald Trump is getting desperate, and he is frantically seeking an off-ramp. Washington announced a "pause" to the fighting, but it lasted just four days. Ben Norton explains the three main reasons why the United States is desperately seeking an exit: one, the Pentagon is running out of missile interceptors; two, the number of casualties among American troops is steadily increasing; and three, Yemen joined the conflict, attacking Saudi oil infrastructure, exacerbating the energy crisis. As predicted :                        The Iran allies in the region are still active, despite their losses. This is connected with the first reason in a way because armed groups dispersed in the Middle-East and affiliated with Iran, can lead to an asymmetric, out-of-control conflict to the point where US for...

The UN Special Rapporteur on Palestine said this breached these government's obligation to cooperate with the ICC. She further called on "competent authorities to investigate possible complicity".

by Alan MacLeod Part 5 -  PragerU: Run by an Israeli Spy This unconditional support is unsurprising, given who actually runs the company. PragerU CEO Marissa Streit is, after all, an Israeli spy. On her eighteenth birthday, Streit joined Unit 8200, the Israeli Defense Force’s spying agency. In interviews, she has admitted that she was an officer in the controversial unit, and stated that she uses the tactics and techniques honed by Israeli spying agency on the American people. “Coming back here to the United States with the gifts that Israel had given me during my military training, I felt compelled to employ them here in my nation of the United States,” she explained. Exactly what her role as a Unit 8200 officer remains a mystery. Streit has said of her time there that, “We were tasked with looking at problems that the intelligence community might be missing.” Given that her service coincides with the Second Palestinian Intifada, however, one can speculate that suppressing domesti...

Daniel Davis / Deep Dive                 It's better for Trump to have wars in intervals in which there are pauses in between that causes the oil markets to calm down. Get oil prices down and then you restart the war. Once oil prices go too high, then you go back into some sort of a fake diplomacy and then you restart the war after a while.

The European Union did not stand up for international law, the International Court of Justice, or even the International Criminal Court. The genocide in Gaza, the EU supported it. The illegal war on Iran, the EU supported it. The illegal Israeli occupation of Lebanon, the EU supported it. The illegal kidnaping of the Venezuelan president and a violation of the UN Charter, the EU stayed silent about it. When the International Court of Justice called for sanctions against Israel, the EU refused it. When the International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants for war criminals, the EU opened its airspace and welcomed them. Just last week the EU stated that the EU supported the ICC, and just today, three EU and ICC member countries—Greece, Italy, and France—have permitted Israeli Prime Minister, a fugitive under ICC arrest warrant, to use their airspace to Washington D.C.

The organization has dedicated a huge amount of time and resources to defending and promoting the country.

The new Prime Minister must abandon decades of automatic support for US foreign policy, which makes us all less safe by Diane Abbott   When the economy is stagnating and living standards are under pressure, it is inevitable that a new prime minister will be judged primarily on their domestic agenda. But foreign policy cannot be pushed onto the backburner. There is simply too much at stake, both in terms of domestic spending priorities and in terms of our security and well-being. This is because we are at a crucial time in terms of war and peace. We are engaged in trying to stop multiple wars, not just one war. We have had an invasion and a coup in Venezuela and the same is threatened against Cuba. Nigeria has been bombed, along with Yemen. A coup in Syria installed an ally of radical jihadists.

New aerial images appear to show U.S. Air Force aircraft disappearing from the base, with reports claiming the number of aircraft dropped from 17 to zero in just days.  While U.S. officials have not confirmed the reported evacuation, the development comes amid escalating tensions between Washington and Tehran, raising fresh questions about America's military posture in the Middle East.

#thegrayzone   Piers Morgan invited Max Blumenthal on to discuss his Iran reporting and the illegal seizure of his devices by the US govt, but spent much of his time questioning Blumenthal's "impartiality." "I'm absolutely not impartial," Blumenthal explained. "I am not objective, and the concept of objectivity, as we understand it, is set out by the corporate media according to the parameters devised for them by their militant Zionist ruling class owners, who literally own the networks that you appear on." Blumenthal then illustrated how Morgan manufactured consent for the US-Israeli war on Iran by promoting inflated death tolls and a false narrative of the Israeli and US-sponsored regime change riots that ravaged Iran in January.

I don’t see the problem.” Further justifying the enslavement and genocide of two continents, Columbus tells those watching that, “The place I discovered was beautiful, but it wasn’t exactly a paradise of civilization, and the native people were far from peaceful.” Another video lesson grossly distorts the views of abolitionist Frederick Douglass, with an animated Douglas justifying slavery in America, stating that “the founding fathers made a compromise [sup...
